Have You Heard: The Bear Hunt

Answered by: Lloyd Edgar

When did you start making music and why? I started making music when I got my first guitar at 14. I just plugged it in and turned everything to 11. I really wanted to be like The Stooges at the time. 

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Raw, loud, face melting.

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Bloc Party's Silent Alarm. I was 15 when the album came out and it blew my mind. The guitar work on the album is amazing too. It just gets me pumped. 

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? Shredding my way around Australia with my arm in a cast. I broke it two days before our last tour so I had no choice. Just took a shit load of drugs to help the pain. 

Why should people come and see your band? Our live shows are always loud, raw and energetic! You just can't get that from listening to a CD.

When and where for your next gig? 6 Oct, The Brightside.
